I'm a union member but this POS must go.

In 2007 Kroll was named in a lawsuit four black police officers — including the current chief — brought against the Minneapolis Police Department for discrimination.

As examples of Kroll's prejudicial treatment, the complaint said Kroll openly wore a "white power" patch sewn into his motorcycle jacket. Kroll is reportedly a member of the City Heat Motorcycle Club, which has been cited by the Anti-Defamation League for its white power connections.

The lawsuit also said Kroll referred to black and Muslim US Rep. Keith Ellison as "a terrorist" in the presence of other officers.

The city eventually settled the lawsuit for $740,000.

1. Bob Kroll is a weapons-grade douche.

MPD has been racist for decades, long before Kroll, but that cockwart is a really destructive influence and has made things even worse.

4. Our police forces have been recruiting and accepting white supremacists for decades

Seriously, the KKK, Skinheads, Confederate dipshits and other groups of white trash have made it a mission to infiltrate local law enforcement all over the country.

It's not a coincidence that folks who consider minorities as subhuman would seek a job that gives them authority over them.

They need to be rooted out of law enforcement.

Honorable law enforcement needs to expose and remove them.

We've stood by and watched them trade their white hoods for blue uniforms for decades.

At this point, I'm not sure we don't just implode the current police force and start over. I truly believe the infection is that bad.
